Not technically a "cover" as it contains the main band (Queen), but I believe guest singer Tom Chaplin (Keane) knocks this out of the park.

goddamn hillbillies


Hah got a soft spot for that song since the Lightning play it every pre-game before the players come out. My favorite covers (in no particular order, probably duplicates since Chrome takes a shit if I let an entire page from this thread load all the way):

bunch from Johnny Cash - One, Hurt, Personal Jesus, Desperado
Goldfinger - 99 Red Balloons
Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower (obvious one and arguably more famous than the original, but still a cover)
Metallica - Turn the Page
Ben Folds - Bitches Ain't Shit (I have an unhealthy love for this one)
Orgy - Blue Monday

Probably a ton of others I'm forgetting but don't feel like going through my entire library to find them all

This cover destroys me. One of the most impressive covers I have listened to. I hope you enjoy it.

I could waste many hours watching all the crazy AV Club covers that are on Youtube

Gwar did some fun covers with that.

Edit i suck at multi quoting apparently. yay for two posts.

Also one of my all time favorite covers. They don't have a music video for it so someone put the music to Vampire Hunter D.


I like this too.


One of a dozen amazing covers by Steel Panther.
